The presiding bishop-elect of the Episcopal Church in the USA continues to get a lot of flak for going on record stating that Jesus is not the only way to God. Here's my latest take on the matter.
This woman is not fit to teach Sunday School, let alone lead a denomination.
The fact that Jesus is the way, and the only way to the Father (not "God", because Jesus Himself is divine), is Christianity 101. Since Jesus is, Himself, divine, this woman is postulating that there are other ways to Jesus besides Jesus, and that religions which flatly contradict the words and teachings of Jesus can also lead to... Jesus.
The fact is, liberals find the plain sense of Scripture repugnant. I guess they think that Jesus the Word is at odds with the written Word of God. And that the Spirit of God who inspired the Scriptures is now inspiring them along different lines.
And these are people who claim to value reason over "mindless fundamentalism"?
At least when you think along fundamentalist lines there is a coherence to your beliefs, and an alignment with what Scripture actually teaches.
Liberals are hopeless. They disconnected themselves from Scripture in the 60s, and are now hopelessly adrift. They are heading for shipwreck.
If you are in a church lead by a liberal, it's time to abandon ship. Nowhere did Jesus command us to submit to false and ungodly leadership. Follow Him.
And that's the way the Ball bounces.

Interesting point of view, albeit different from mine. Sorry.
You wouldn't believe the revelation
I had the other day!
Who allows these people to get to such high positions in a organization where they reject its basic tenets?
Have none of the people involved any shame?
